Where is your...
Balance point???
I am "scared" to really find it .. I dont wanna fall on my @$$ because that would be the end of me riding altogether... so how do you "KNOW" how far back to pull to find it???
its a little freakin bike, you can control it better then a biggin! sheeeesh ... i just cant find it
Dumb question I know, but shoot, everyone has been at that point so it doesnt hurt to share some wisdom and knowledge right? right!

my quad is automatic... i cant pull it up all the way.. i can get it off the ground a bit, but not all the way up ... now if i had a clutch, i could do it ... also, i dont like wheelies on the quad, i like going airborn and landing it :YEAH ...
i am so frustrated with the little bike wheelie thing i am about to just give it up

i am certainly NOT a multitasker ... so i have to get the "feel" of the balance point rather than watching the throttle imput.. once i can figure out how to balance i can then figure out how to rev it when needed... right???

Re: Where is your...
Something you can try ,
Sit on the bike at a complete stop . Put your feet down and slowly give it gas . Let the front end come up real slow while holding the bike in place .
You are doing this to stand the bike almost straight up . If you have a hand brake it is easier to hold bike in the wheelie position when it gets to that point . You can also stand behind the bike in this position while holding on to the bars .
Doing this will help you feel how the bike position is when it is on one wheel And you won't get hurt cause you are not moving .
